A Surfeit of Info

If you're one of the many aficionados of TV's long-gone but well-remembered "Twilight Zone" weekly program, you'll really enjoy this book. It deals with the same space/time fascination that keeps us interested up to the final denouement, when we are offered an explanantion of what might have taken place. Drawing upon his years of experience as a newsman, the author writes clearly, his characters act logically, and he holds our interest weaving a story of a mysterious odyssey, all the while making references to pieces of classical music and apt quotations from the works of well-known poets. At the same time, we are given a good dose of astronomical and astrological information. The author is obviously well-read and well-informed and presumes that his readers are intelligent people.This is a book you can pass on to a friend without worrying about the use of crass language or detailed sexual scenarios. It's just a good story that everyone can enjoy.
